The NJ ‘Watcher’ House Has Been Sold – Again

Remember the Westfield "Watcher" house? A few years ago it gained notoriety after the family that bought the house started receiving letters from an unknown "watcher", filled with creepy, threatening things like

My grandfather watched the house in the 1920s and my father watched in the 1960s. It is now my time."

and

Have they found what is in the walls yet? In time they will."

and

I am pleased to know your names and the names now of the young blood you have brought to me."

and

Will the young bloods play in the basement. Who has the bedrooms facing the street? I'll know as soon as you move in. It will help me to know who is in which bedroom then I can plan better."

and

All the windows and door in (the house) allow me to watch you and track you as you move through the house. I am in charge of (the house)."

Dammit I got chills reading those again after three years.

The Broaddus family bought the house in 2014 and ended up suing the previous owners for non-disclosure. They applied for a permit to demolish the house in 2016, but the town denied it in 2017.

Now, the Broadduses are selling - but at a significant loss. While they bought the house for just under $1.4million, the new owners are paying just $959K.

The most disappointing part of all of this? I STILL HAVEN'T FOUND OUT WHAT WAS IN THE WALLS.
